Chapter 275: 1 Yuan for the New Year
Qin Huairu frowned and asked with difficulty: "Jia Dongxu, you are not going to ask me to get close to He Yuzhu?" She had already guessed about 70% of the answer in her heart, but still hoped to get a negative answer from Jia Dongxu.
After all, if a wife can imagine her husband asking her to seduce other men, is she still a man?
However, Jia Dongxu did not directly answer her question, but just nodded slightly to indicate his agreement.
Qin Huairu was immediately furious. She glared at Jia Dongxu and said angrily, "How could you come up with such an idea? You want me to please He Yuzhu. How could you come up with such an idea?"
Although she was very angry, she changed her mind and realized that if she didn't do as Jia Dongxu said, she might not be able to overcome the current difficulties.
After weighing the pros and cons, Qin Huairu finally gritted her teeth and decided to follow Jia Dongxu's arrangements.
In fact, Qin Huairu had already done this, but Qin Huairu didn't want Jia Dongxu to say it, after all, he was her husband.
Time flies, and the weekend comes in the blink of an eye. The sun is shining and the breeze is blowing, making people feel particularly comfortable and cozy.
He Feng arrived at the library on time as agreed with Ma Xin. As soon as he walked into the door, he saw Ma Xin sitting in the corner reading quietly. She was concentrating on holding a book, as if she was completely immersed in the world of the book.
He Feng didn't want to disturb Ma Xin rashly, so he tiptoed to the bookshelf next to him, picked up a book that interested him, found a place to sit down, and began to read quietly.
Whenever He Feng comes to this library, he will think of the time when he met Ran Qiuye. The two of them just sat there and neither of them disturbed the other.
After a while, Ma Xin accidentally raised her head, thinking that He Feng might have forgotten about the date because of his busy work. But when she looked around, she was surprised to find that He Feng was actually reading a book not far away.
Ma Xin quickly put down the book in his hand, walked quickly to He Feng, and said apologetically: "Director He, I'm so sorry, I was so engrossed in reading that I didn't notice you coming."
He Feng raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile and said: "Outside, you should just call me He Feng directly."
Ma Xin nodded obediently and replied: "Okay, then... Director He, oh no, He Feng, let's go to the park and take a look. Maybe we can find some new clues."
He Feng didn't really believe that Ma Xin could find anything. After all, it had been a few days since the incident, and he had been there several times, but to no avail. But after all, Ma Xin was an expert sent by the higher-ups to assist in the investigation.
So, the two of them came to the park together. As expected, just as He Feng expected, there was nothing valuable to find in the park.
At this time, Ma Xin turned his head, stared straight at He Feng and asked, "He Feng, I understand that this incident has dealt a heavy blow to you. So I want to ask, do you have any enemies or something like that?"
Hearing this, He Feng couldn't help but fall into deep thought. The few days since he met Ran Qiuye began to emerge in his mind.
After a moment, He Feng slowly said, "As for enemies, there are indeed a few. Those who trafficked children are one of them, and as far as I know, there should be higher-level leaders behind them."
Ma Xin nodded thoughtfully after hearing this. Her eyes unconsciously revealed a hint of strangeness, but this unnatural expression was only fleeting, so fast that even He Feng could not notice it.
The days passed one by one, and in a blink of an eye, it was He Feng's first year in this world. He Feng originally wanted to have a good rest. After all, he had not had the time to rest properly since he came to this world.
At this moment, a crisp and rapid knock on the door broke the silence in the room, "Bang bang bang!" The sound clearly reached He Feng's ears.
He Feng frowned slightly, wondering who would come to visit during the Chinese New Year. Then he heard a familiar voice coming from outside the door: "Uncle, I'm Yu Shui."
He Feng was startled. He had never expected that He Yushui would appear at his doorstep at this time. While wondering about her intentions, he slowly stood up and walked to the door, then stretched out his hand and gently opened it.
Seeing He Yushui standing outside the door, He Feng showed a trace of surprise on his face and asked, "Yushui, why don't you stay at home to celebrate the New Year? Why do you come to see your uncle now?"
He Yushui pouted her lips pretending to be angry, and stared at He Feng with her big eyes, and said coquettishly: "Uncle, we are a family! Don't you feel lonely staying at home alone for the New Year? Besides, it's quite lonely for my brother and I to be at home. Don't you want to come and have some fun with us?" As she said that, she put her hands on her hips, looking as if she would not accept rejection.
He Feng smiled slightly after hearing this, and a warm feeling surged in his heart, but he still said: "No, Yushui, thank you for your kindness. Uncle can just make some food for himself."
However, He Yushui obviously did not intend to give up. She blinked and continued to persuade him, "Uncle, if you really don't want to go, then I will call my brother to invite you! I can't let you spend the New Year alone in the cold and lonely."
He Feng shook his head helplessly, thinking that this girl was really stubborn. In the end, he couldn't resist He Yushui's enthusiastic invitation, and nodded and agreed: "Okay, then uncle will obey your order and go to celebrate the New Year with you."
In fact, He Feng also felt lonely. After all, it was meaningless to celebrate the New Year alone at home. However, in this society, Gu Nan had no other relatives except He Yushui and He Yuzhu.
Afterwards, He Feng followed He Yushui to the He family. As soon as they entered the door, they could smell the tempting aroma of food. He Yuzhu was busy in the kitchen wearing an apron. He poked his head out and greeted with a smile after hearing the noise: "Uncle, you are here! Today is New Year, and your nephew has specially prepared several delicious dishes for you!"
After listening to He Feng's righteous words last time, He Yuzhu completely cut off all contact with the Jia family. Although Qin Huairu would take the initiative to approach He Yuzhu from time to time, no matter how hard she tried, He Yuzhu always ignored her and said nothing.
